Being there when needed

Tom Wilson Motors was another important essential service, particularly for businesses and farmers who needed to keep their vehicles running.  “Tom would get jobs from time to time doing repairs and the odd AA breakdown.  It was all about being there if he was needed.” says Lesley.   

“Amber and I needed to be there too but not a lot happened.  We managed to do the quickest stocktake in history.  Our main job seemed to be helping people navigate their way around the self service machine for the first time.  We had to do this  from behind a closed window so it was sometimes quite an interesting process! It also made a change to be topping up dogs’ water bowls instead of topping up oil in cars.”
